Hi. I'm Diana Hughes, a dyer in Atlanta, Georgia. I mostly use a variety of shibori techniques. I'm entirely self-taught, although I owe a huge debt of gratitude to so many who have shared their knowledge and expertise and passion online. (Some of whom are here already!).
I mainly do garments and accessories, although recently I've been dyeing silk and slicing/splicing it into ribbon yarn. I have shops at both Etsy and 1000 Markets and use the income to fund my passion for learning more and experimenting with just about every dyeable surface I can find. There is so much to learn! So much to play with! So much to do! And I love every day of it.
Hand dyed shibori clothing and accessories - whether it's stitched, wrapped, bound, or clamped - it's not your typical tiedye.

Your garments, and your color sense, are stunning. I'm also intriqued by the strips. I can conceive of so many ways to use them. You've put some ideas into my head. . . . . .
